Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/pseries/htmdump: Fix leak in htmdump_init_debugfs
Date: Tue, 4 Aug 2026 22:55:23 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <anJDq-JckR6j-6EJ@michalis-linux> (raw)
If any allocation fails during init all previous allocations are
leaked and the debugfs directory is left.
Fix by freeing the allocations that have already happened and also
remove the directory that has been created.
